First clutch CL1, second clutch CL2, first brake BK1, and second brake BK2 are, as shown in FIG. 1, included in the power train of a hybrid vehicle that includes, a first planetary gear set PG1 including a first sun gear S1, a first carrier C1, and a first ring gear R1, a second planetary gear set PG2 including a second carrier C2 directly connected to first ring gear R1, a second sun gear S2, and a second ring gear R2, a first motor generator MG1 connected to first sun gear S1 of first planetary gear set PG1, a second motor generator MG2 connected to second sun gear S2 of second planetary gear set PG2, an engine Engine connected to first carrier C1 of first planetary gear set PG1, and an output member Output connected to second carrier C2 of second planetary gear set PG2.

Line pressure and lubrication pressure generator RL-CON includes, a variable force solenoid valve VFS that receives second reducing pressure from second reducing valve RED2 and generates solenoid control pressure, a regulator valve REGV that is controlled by the solenoid control pressure from variable force solenoid valve VFS and generates the line pressure, using the hydraulic pressure supplied from the oil pump, and a lubrication pressure regulator valve LRV that is controlled by the solenoid control pressure from variable solenoid valve VFS and generates the lubrication pressure, using the hydraulic pressure from regulator valve REGV.
Manual valve MV, as shown in detain in FIG. 4, includes a line pressure port MV-L that receives line pressure from line pressure and lubrication pressure generating unit RL-CON, a D-stage port MV-D that supplies line pressure to first brake control unit BK1-CON, second brake control unit BK2-CON, and first clutch control unit CL1-CON, an R-stage port MV-R that supplies line pressure to second brake control unit BK2-CON and first clutch control unit CL1-CON, and a valve spool MV-SP that implements a P-stage and an N-stage at the same position where line pressure port MV-L is isolated, moves from the N-stage position to one side such that line pressure port MV-L communicates with D-stage port MV-D, and to the other side such that line pressure port MV-L communicates with R-stage port MV-R.
That is, the P-stage and the N-stage are set to the same position at the center, such that the D-stage state where line pressure port MV-L communicates with only D-stage port MVD is implemented by moving valve spool MV-SP to the right side from the P-stage and N-stage and the R-stage state where line pressure port MV-L communicates with only R-stage port MV-R by moving valve spool MV-SP to the left side.
D-R check valve D-R-CV, as shown in FIG. 5, includes a first port D-R-1 that is connected to D-stage port MV-D of manual valve MV, a second port D-R-2 that is connected to R-stage port MV-R of manual valve MV, a third port D-R-3 that is connected to first clutch control unit CL1-CON and second brake control unit BK2-CON, and a valve spool D-R-SP that slides straight such that first port D-R-1 communicates with third port D-R-3 when hydraulic pressure is supplied to first port D-R-1 and second port D-R-2 communicates with third port D-R-3 when hydraulic pressure is supplied to second port D-R-2.
Therefore, D-R check valve D-R-CV operates with selection of the D-stage and the R-stage of manual valve MV, such that the line pressure from manual valve MV is supplied to first clutch control unit CL1-CON and second brake control unit BK2-CON through third port D-R-3, regardless of that manual valve MV is in the D-stage state or the R-stage state.
The present embodiment further includes an R-N-D static control unit R-N-D-CON between manual valve MV and second brake control unit BK2-CON to relatively rapidly supply the line pressure from manual valve MV to second brake control unit BK2-CON, and relatively slowly remove the hydraulic pressure from second brake control unit BK2-CON.
In the present embodiment, R-N-D static control unit R-N-D-CON is disposed between D-R check valve D-R-CV and second brake control unit BK2-CON, and R-N-D static control unit R-N-D-CON, as shown in FIG. 6, includes an RND check valve RND-CV that forms only a channel to second brake control unit BK2-CON from D-R check valve D-R-CV, an orifice RND-O that is formed in a channel detouring RND check valve RND-CV, and an accumulator RND-ACC that is disposed between orifice RND-O and second brake control unit BK2-CON.
R-N-D static control unit R-N-D-CON described above improves response by allowing line pressure to be rapidly supplied to second brake BK2 through second brake control unit BK2-CON, when a driver moves the shift lever from the P-stage or the N-stage to the D-stage or the R-stage, and relatively slowly removes the hydraulic pressure of second brake BK2 through second brake control unit BK2-CON to maintain a predetermined level of hydraulic pressure of second brake BK2, when the shift lever is moved from the D-stage or the R-stage to the N-stage and the P-stage, such that control performance is improved when the driver repeatedly and rapidly moves the shift lever between the N-stage, the R-stage, and the D-stage, for parking, and rapid response is ensured when a shift shock does not occur.
In this configuration, the reason that R-N-D static control unit R-N-D-CON controls the line pressure supplied to second brake BK2, as described, is that, as can be seen from FIG. 2, only second brake BK2 is engaged in both the EV1 mode and the rearward mode, which are used to start a vehicle, in a hybrid vehicle, and also that second brake BK2 is the operating member that are used the most driving modes.
First brake control unit BK1-CON includes a normally-low type variable force solenoid valve VFS that generates solenoid control pressure using second reducing pressure received from second reducing valve RED2, a pressure control valve PCV that is integrally formed at one side of variable force solenoid valve VFS and outputs operation pressure of first brake BK1, using the line pressure, and a pressure switch valve PSW that is converted to feedback or stop a portion of operation pressure, supplied to first brake BK1, to pressure control valve PCV, using first reducing pressure received from first reducing valve RED1 at one side and solenoid control pressure from variable force solenoid valve VFS from the other side.
Second brake control unit BK2-CON includes a normally-high type variable force solenoid valve VFS that generates solenoid control pressure using second reducing pressure received from second reducing valve RED2 and, a pressure control valve PCV that is integrally formed at one side of variable force solenoid valve VFS and outputs operation pressure of second brake BK2, using the line pressure, a pressure switch valve PSW that is converted to feedback or stop a portion of operation pressure, supplied to second brake BK2, to pressure control valve PCV, using first reducing pressure received from first reducing valve RED1 at one side and solenoid control pressure from variable force solenoid valve VFS from the other side.
First clutch control unit CL1-CON includes a normally-high type variable force solenoid valve VFS that generates solenoid control pressure using second reducing pressure received from second reducing valve RED2 and, a pressure control valve PCV that is integrally formed at one side of variable force solenoid valve VFS and outputs operation pressure of first clutch CL1, using the line pressure, a pressure switch valve PSW that is converted to feedback or stop a portion of operation pressure, supplied to first clutch CL1, to pressure control valve PCV, using first reducing pressure received from first reducing valve RED1 at one side and solenoid control pressure from variable force solenoid valve VFS from the other side.
Second clutch control unit CL2-CON includes a normally-high type variable force solenoid valve VFS that generates solenoid control pressure using second reducing pressure received from second reducing valve RED2 and, a pressure control valve PCV that is integrally formed at one side of variable force solenoid valve VFS and outputs operation pressure of second clutch CL2, using the line pressure, a pressure switch valve PSW that is converted to feedback or stop a portion of operation pressure, supplied to second clutch CL2, to pressure control valve PCV, using first reducing pressure received from first reducing valve RED1 at one side and solenoid control pressure from variable force solenoid valve VFS from the other side.
That is, first brake control unit BK1-CON, second brake control unit BK2-CON, first clutch control unit CL1-CON, and second clutch control unit CL2-CON all have substantially the same structure, and respectively includes variable force solenoid valve VFS that generates the solenoid control pressure, using the second reducing pressure from second reducing valve RED2, pressure control valve PCV that is integrally formed an one side of variable force solenoid valve VFS and outputs the operation pressure for one corresponding operating member to control in first brake BK1, second brake BK2, first clutch CL1, and second clutch CL2, using the line pressure received, and pressure switch valve PSW that is converted to feedback or stop a portion of the operation pressure supplied to the corresponding operating member to control to pressure control valve PCV, using the first reducing pressure received from first reducing valve RED1 at one side of the valve spool and the solenoid control pressure received from variable force solenoid valve VFS from the other side.
Therefore, in the figures, variable force solenoid valve VFS, pressure control valve PCV, and pressure switch valve PSW are designated by the same reference numerals and FIG. 7 representatively shows the structure of first clutch control unit CL1-CON in detail.
Second brake fail-safe valve BKS-FSV, as shown in detail in FIG. 8, includes a first port BK2-1 that receives operation pressure supplied to first clutch CL1, in parallel with first clutch CL1, a second port BK2-2 that receives operation pressure supplied to second clutch CL2, in parallel with second clutch CL2, a third port BK2-3 and a fourth port BK2-4 through which operation pressure supplied to second brake BK2 from second brake control unit BK2-CON is transmitted inside and outside, respectively, a fifth port BK2-5 that receives the line pressure, a valve spool BK2-SP that closes third port BK2-3 and fourth port BK2-4 and removes the pressure of second brake BK2, only when operation pressure is simultaneously applied to first port BK2-1 and second port BK2-2, by making the operation pressure of first port BK2-1 and second port BK2-2 correspond to the line pressure of fifth port BK2-5.
Therefore, the hydraulic pressure of second brake BK2 is structurally removed while the operation pressure is respectively supplied to first clutch CL1 and second clutch CL2, which is because, referring to FIG. 2, a power train for a hybrid vehicle using the present invention do not have a mode for connecting first clutch CL1 and second clutch CL2 with second brake BK2.
Further, as described above, since first clutch control unit CL1-CON, second clutch control unit CL2-CON, and second brake control unit BK2-CON respectively includes normally-high type variable force solenoid valve VFS that increases the solenoid control pressure to the highest level, when they cannot be supplied with control current, the operation pressure can be supplied to first clutch CL1, second clutch CL2, and second brake BK2, when malfunction occurs in the electric device, in which when the operation pressure is supplied to both of first clutch CL1 and second clutch CL2, second brake fail-safe valve BK2-FSV mechanically stops and remove the operation pressure for second brake BK2 and generates that a 1,1 transmission gear ratio mode of two-stage fixed gear ratio, such that a limp home function can be implemented.
